Chirporactic adjustments help stimulate the body to heal itself. Traditionally, chiropractors have used single high-energy thrusting and pulling movements to adjust areas of the body. The adjustment sets a series of events into motion...
The adjustment produces precise movements which stimulate 'neural receptors' in an area. These receptors, in turn, produce nerve impulses whch relay crucial information to the brain.
The brain depends on this 'neurological feedback stream' to update its awareness about the area. Once the brain evaluates the changes prompted by the adjustment, it issues self-correcting commands to the muscular system, and other systems, to bring about healing changes.
Recently, new ways of producing this important neurological feedback stream have been developed. The ArthroStim Instrument is on of the most effective and comfortable tools for creating this valuable input in an area.
The ArthoStim Instrument permits your practitioner to maintain the effectiveness of your adjusment while reducing the amount of force that is applied. This dynamic combination allows the practitioner to comfortably manage a wider range of conditions.
Individuals that may especially benefit from the use of the ArthroStim Instrument include:
infants and young children
individuals in acute pain
particularly sensitive individuals
individuals whodilike being "cracked"
elderly individuals
Even individuals who are larger and stronger (and may be difficult to adjust by hand) can benefit from the 'neurological assistance' that the ArthroStim Instrument provides.
Dr. Meier sometimes uses the ArthroStim Instrument by itself, or in combination with other adjusting methods, depending on the approach he feels is best for your specific case.
The VibraCussor delivers waves of percussive impulses deep into the tissues of the body. These percussion waves promote an increase in circulation and lymphatic flow and a decrease in muscle spasm. Additionally, these waves heighten neurological awareness of specific ares of the body and facilitate energetic normalization. The repetitve pumping action of the VibraCussor is ideal for releasing joints. The power of multiple percussive waves accumulates to loosen up "stuck" ares without using heavy thrusting forces.
Indications for use of the VibraCussor Instrument may include:
joint fixations
postural distortion
myofascial restrictions
trigger points (without injections)
"frozen" shoulder
TMJ problems
scar tissue
"energetic" tone-up
The VibraCussor Instrument i sused by many professional sports teams to enhance rehabilitation and help reduce pain and discomfort among their top players. Now that same technology is available in this office.
